Hello Khem,

I believe so. The aktualizr recipe includes the following (edited for
simplicity):

BBCLASSEXTEND =+ "native"

do_install_append () {
    install -m 0644 ${S}/config/sota.conf ${D}/${libdir}/sota.conf
}

PACKAGES =+ " ${PN}-host-tools "

FILES_${PN}-host-tools = " ${libdir}/sota.conf "

Thanks,
Patrick
